Delhi Capitals skipper Axar Patel was fined Rs 12 lakh for maintaining slow over-rate during his team`s 12-run defeat at the hands of Mumbai Indians in an IPL game. MI scored 205 for 5 in 20 overs while DC were all out for 193 in 19 overs.

“Delhi Capitals captain Axar Patel has been fined after his team maintained a slow over-rate during Match No. 29 of the TATA Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 against Mumbai Indians at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi. As this was his team`s first offence of the season under Article 2.22 of the IPL`s Code of Conduct, which pertains to minimum over-rate offences, Patel was fined INR 12 lakhs,” the BCCI said in a release.

While this was DC`s first defeat in the tournament, Axar continued to struggle, having gone wicketless in five matches and managing only 67 runs with the bat.
